'We said to ourselves, "What does FEMA do when they have to house 10,000 people after an earthquake?" Well, they grab a bunch of trailers and they plop them in a field,' Li said. 'Well, there's underutilized space in people's backyards. What if we provide a lower-cost - but very habitable option - in people's backyards?'

So now the left is defining a green space as an underutilized space?

How about other underutilized spaces?

Plenty of space in the middle of freeway cloverleaves. All is needed is a little bridge over the exit ramp.

Obviously the "Tent Cities" they are complaining about were underutilized spaces that were utilized, so why not put the little sheds there?

Actually, in Portland those spaces are already utilized and filled with homeless living in tents and under tarps. With the city's incessant rain, being under freeway structures or bridge entrance ramps make those locations prime locations for the homeless.
